I'm definitely going to fix the yellow line, since it's leaking on the metal side it will be a major pain though.
The red one is capped where the tank is, I just figured it would be where the hanging red hose is supposed to go.
Where the yellow hose connects to the fuel tank, I cut the rubber jacket but there is a plastic hose inside which I can't get off. I have to replace the hose because I cut the rubber part, is this hose a pre-made assembly or do I have to get a fitting and make my own?

Ok, it's been a few days because I've been working but I have learned a little more info.
First, the hose marked in red is part of the evaporative emissions system, that hose is supposed to run to the charcoal canister.
Also, I think my relay is sticking, so I'm going to try a new one. Now I just need to replace and repair my fuel lines and put a new in-tank pump and filter in. We'll see if that cures my issues.

I finally got the pump assembly out of the tank, and I immediately had a "well there's your problem" moment.
It appears my in-tank fuel pump isn't connected to its respective output line as you can see here: http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/7757/p1030264x.jpg
Now it would appear I need a new set of rubber bindings to hold the pump (which I'm replacing for good measure) to its pipe. I also have a leaky fuel line an need a new line from output to metal and from metal to return... I'm not sure how to go about that, especially since I can't disconnect the rubber return line from the metal line (which is leaking!) no matter how hard I try... Its really stuck on there!
